Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Allergy & Immunology care with Dr. Jaime Landman:

What is an Allergist / Immunologist?

An allergist/immunologist is a medical specialist who diagnoses and treats conditions related to the immune system, including allergies (where the immune system overreacts) and immunodeficiencies (where it underreacts). They help identify triggers and develop strategies to prevent reactions and improve quality of life.

What can I expect during my first allergy consultation with Dr. Jaime Landman?

Your first consultation with Dr. Landman will be a detailed detective process, focusing on a thorough history of your symptoms, potential exposures, and family history. This may also include diagnostic tests, like skin testing, to pinpoint specific triggers and create a personalized prevention plan.

How does allergy testing work, and is it painful?

Skin prick testing is the most common method. A tiny amount of allergen is placed on the skin, and a light scratch introduces it. This is not painful, and a positive reaction, a small itchy bump, confirms an allergy.

How do you test for a food allergy?

We begin with a skin prick test or a blood test (IgE test) to identify potential allergens. However, the gold standard for diagnosis is an oral food challenge, performed in our clinic under strict medical supervision, to definitively confirm or rule out a food allergy.

What is immunotherapy (allergy shots), and how does it prevent allergies?

Immunotherapy, or allergy shots, is a treatment that retrains the immune system. By gradually increasing doses of the allergen, the body learns to tolerate it over time, effectively reducing or eliminating allergic reactions. This is the only treatment that can change the underlying disease and provide long-term prevention of allergy symptoms.

What is anaphylaxis and how can I prevent it?

Anaphylaxis is a severe, life-threatening allergic reaction. Prevention involves strict avoidance of known triggers, carrying an epinephrine auto-injector, and having a clear Anaphylaxis Emergency Action Plan, which Dr. Landman will help create.

I have chronic hives (urticaria). What could be the cause?

While occasional hives might be linked to allergies or viruses, chronic hives, lasting more than six weeks, are often autoimmune. Dr. Landman is an expert in diagnosing the underlying cause and can utilize advanced treatments, such as biologic medications, to help prevent outbreaks.

Are there alternatives to allergy shots?

Yes, for some environmental allergies like grass and ragweed pollen, there are under-the-tongue tablets or drops (sublingual immunotherapy) that can be taken at home. Dr. Landman can discuss if this is a suitable prevention option for you.
